He turned around resolutely, and Granny Liu and Liu Xiaowang followed suit.

Returning to the house where the three of them lived, Liu Heng started looking for clothes.

Granny Liu nagged: "Tell me, why are you trying to do this? We have food and drink here, and you are not tired from the night watch. Why do you have to go to the border to deliver goods? The Chinese New Year is about to come, and the whole family is not tired." If we can’t reunite, I still have to be worried all day long, alas!”

It's not a pleasant feeling to always have to worry about.

Can't eat, can't sleep.

Liu Heng picked up his son and kissed his little face, "Mom, don't worry, there won't be any danger along the way. There are bodyguards and Master Chu. They are all very powerful people. Besides, look at Fan Xiaoshan, didn’t he come back safe and sound?”

"Although we don't have to worry about food and drink here, I can't be a janitor for the rest of my life. If I didn't have the opportunity before, that's it. Now that I have the opportunity, if I don't seize it, I will regret it to death. Don't worry! Even if I have one If anything happens, my boss will take care of you, she is a kind person."

Grandma Liu's face changed in fear, "Bah, bah, bah! If you say unlucky words before you go out, you should vomit three times quickly."

In the courtyard, Shen Qing was still arranging delivery matters and had to load all the goods in advance. It started to snow here again. In order to prevent the road from slipping, they had to make some anti-skid chains, which are ropes made of straw and tied to the wheels. This needs to be prepared.

Secondly, she prepared some New Year's gifts for Xi Ming. They were not many and not expensive, but their kindness was more important than anything else.

There were a whole basket of big steamed buns made by grandma herself, two jars of rice wine, a few firecrackers, and even a few couplets.

As for the news about his daughter, although people have been sent to inquire about it, the information is not smooth. It is estimated that it will take the New Year before any news comes back.

She also entrusted the shopkeeper of Jinxiu Bank to handle this matter. In fact, she entrusted Su Jing to handle it.

Su Jing over there was really surprised when she received the news and couldn't understand her brain circuit at all.

After the delivery team set off, the snow in Crescent Bay became heavier and heavier.

The people who entered the training camp were actually still children. Shen Qing discussed with Xu Lu that it would be inappropriate if they were not allowed to go back to celebrate the New Year, so they gave them three days off and asked them to pack their things and go home for the New Year. People also prepared a new year gift.

Because there were so many people, it was impossible to prepare any tricks.

Therefore, each person received two kilograms of white flour, one kilogram of rice, one kilogram of pork, and one head of cabbage in a small bag, and everyone queued up to receive it.

This time, another few hundred kilograms were given out.

Grandma Shen complained that before she saw the benefits, she gave away a lot of it, which was really a loss.

Shen Qing smiled and said nothing. Others went home to celebrate the New Year and could relax, but she had to supervise the decoration of the house. Fortunately, the girls under her could be assigned and they did not have to go home to celebrate the New Year, which saved her a lot of things.

In addition, regarding publicity matters, she called Maodou, Niu Bao, Shen Qi and others to come forward.

They stopped being beggars, but a new group of beggars came to town. This problem cannot be stopped.

There are old and young among the beggars, just like Maodou and others before.

When the weather gets cold, these beggars huddle in the ruined temple, shivering from the cold.

Every spring, people will find people freezing to death and starving in a corner. This is not surprising.

Maodou brought quilts and food to see them and asked them to spread the news.

Of course, you have to make up a good story, but you can't just tell them to visit the hotpot city.

Zhong Ling is very good at making up stories. She wrote a special storybook to describe the hot pot city as a fairyland, wonderful and mysterious, and even a poignant and beautiful love story. Shen Qing's mouth twitched hard after reading the script she wrote.

"Girl, what do you think of my writing?" Zhong Ling looked at her expectantly.

"Ahem! What I want is publicity, you..."

"Girl, do you know what kind of people love reading storybooks?"

"Appreciate further details."

"Of course they are women in boudoir. They seldom go out and have few friends to make friends with. They only live in their own one-third of an acre of land all day long. They are the ones who need the comfort of storybooks the most. The storybooks I wrote have all the locations. In our hot pot city, as long as we spread this book, we won’t worry that they won’t be attracted to it.”

"I understand, you want me to help you tell the story, right?"

Zhong Ling suddenly blushed, "The story I wrote is not long. It only requires a lot of paper and thread, and it costs nothing. How about you deduct it from my salary? If it is not enough, I will owe it first, and you can deduct it slowly!"

Shen Qing thought for a while and handed the storybook to Feng Chengcheng, "Leave this matter to shopkeeper Feng. We must get the storybook out as quickly as possible. Don't sell it yet, but send a batch out first. The target is those from wealthy families." The backyard gate must be completed at least within the shortest time, and every person in the inner house of all the wealthy families in Pingchuan County will have one copy. Oh, by the way, I will also send some to the county magistrate and ask him to help spread it out."

Therefore, the opening time of the hotpot city is stated at the back of the storybook. Whether it will work or not is yet to be determined. We will only know when the time comes.

Feng Chengcheng doesn't have high hopes for this kind of publicity.

Originally! It is easier for men than women to go out to eat and drink, so he thinks the target group should be wealthy young men or gentlemen in Jingyang Mansion.

But since it was Shen Qing's order, he must carry it out.

There are various methods of promotion, and there are many posts from Feng Chengcheng. They heard that there is a hot pot city. Everyone thinks that the name is novel, and they all say that they want to join in the fun on the opening day.

However, everyone misjudged the form, including Shen Qing.

She ignored human curiosity about the unknown.

and entertainment and pastimes that the ancients lacked.

In addition to visiting brothels, men either attend poetry gatherings, or drink tea, enjoy the scenery and listen to operas. These are things that have been passed down for hundreds of years and have long lost their appeal to them.

If a brand new thing pops up at this time, as long as it can catch their eyeballs and occupy their taste buds, it will definitely explode.

The Shen family has been very busy this year.

Fan Xiaoshan finally brought his wife back with gifts. I don't know how he trained her. After Pan Feng came back, she became more settled and didn't come to Shen's house very much. She just stayed at her own home.

Fan Xiaoshan found a job for her and asked her to make tofu at home.

Although life is not easy, Fan Xiaoshan promises that all the money she earns belongs to her and she can buy whatever she wants.

Pan Feng probably also felt that making money was more important than quarreling, so he was busy all day and was nowhere to be seen.

When Mrs. Fan was over her happiness, her appetite increased greatly and her fetus was very stable, so she started taking care of the Shen family's kitchen again.

Grandma Shen and Shen Hui were free again, took willow leaves, and started making clothes.

Making shoes was too laborious, so the old lady took over the work.

Find some work for the women in Xinghua Village and let them earn some extra money in the winter.
